A beautiful old Ireland station is Ballybrophy. I've been changing trains here all my life…read morepractically as I transport myself between the premier county and the big shmoke. It was given a new waiting and ticket room a few years back, with nice toilets too. The setting was was somewhat marred by the modern footbridge that was also added, which includes an elevator. So very much needed, but has taken away from the station a bit. There are no shops or cafes in the station, but there is the pub just outside the station, aptly called The Signal Box. I assume its still going. It was a handy place to pass the time if your connecting train was late.

My local train station in North Tipperary, which they've been threatening to close for as long as I…read morecan remember. It has its drawbacks: There is no office. There is no toilet. There is no ticket machine. Just a platform and a bench, which is covered. You can buy your ticket on the train from the nice conductor man. I really like this station for a few reasons, which are seasonal to be fair: In the summer there is usually some sort of bird taking up roost here. Mainly swallows, but I have see starlings with a brood in under the eaves one year. Waiting for your lift or for the train on a warm summers evening, listening to the surrounding noises such as a dog barking in the distance, birds singing or black bird warnings, the occasion car or tractor going over the bridge nearby. It can be a peaceful place. I am a fan of Clough train station

Its a single line track without much service and you often…read morehave to go to Kildare town or Portarlington to get connections to other parts of Ireland as its not possible to do from here. The building itself is nice and historic but God help you if you have mobility needs. In general trains in Ireland are expensive and at peak hours you could be standing for the entire journey. I spent 5 hours on a train the other day as it broke down. It should have taken one hour. Many people missed flights because of it so I think Ill give it a miss when going to the airport. Location wise its on the Dublin side tucked into a corner in Church Rd so you can avoid the town if your coming from the Dublin or Carlow Rd. There is all day parking next to the train station and also opposite it next to the park.

I have used this station a few times. It's small but it serves its purpose quite well. The shop is…read morefairly sleepy as it is not overly busy with a handful of trains to and from Dublin each day. The outside appearance is fine while the interior is decently kept. The waiting area is small but adequate and the same could be said for the train platforms. There is a small shop where one can buy a few food, drink and reading items. The normal washroom and phone facilities are available. The staff for Irish Rail are efficient enough and it is easy to buy tickets (though you can often get better pricing buying in advance on-line). The location for the station across the river from the main part of the town is actually reasonably convenient. Waterford proper is accessible on foot unless you are loaded down with a bunch of luggage. I usually stay at the Granville which is only a six- or eight-minute walk across the bridge on the Quay.
